    I tried the crossbow in one bug match and got my ass handed to me. So I was shocked to see it nerfed afterwards. Do you use it regularly? Any tips?

      I don’t use it and have no tips because of skill issues. It would be fun to have the entire team use it and see how far it can go.

      And yes, I am that one person who brings a flame thrower to a bot planet because I thought it was funny.

      I’ve only seen one video singing its praises and it basically boils down do learn how to range it properly. The best use I saw for it was using it like a mortar, or triggering bug breaches very far from the group to make sure the timer is on cooldown for future fights. I won’t be diving with it any time soon though.

      I heard someone recently say it’s a good anti-medium unit weapon? So like the railgun maybe? I dunno
